Fireside Chat: Survive, Embrace & Go Beyond with Bertran Sennwald

By Percy Chen, Junior Project Manager Art-Science

On September 27, the fourth Fireside Chat: Survive, Embrace, & Go Beyond took place at the swissnex China office. Mr. Bertran Sennwald, the Design Director at Shanghai Design Development, not only elaborated on his growth experience in Shanghai, but also introduced many of his intricate architectural projects. Among them are the unique facede design of Shanghai Yuanshen Financial Tower in Pudong Lujiazui; the future development of huge high-rise building projects in Wuhan; an innovative design product inspired by space concept, which has already been granted two patents in China; as well as a novel 3D chess system, Einsteinmill, designed to facilitate children’s critical thinking skill.
